Quoted from Grantley
Luton Outlaws is actually one of the worst forums in the country so you played yourself there!


And you have just proved my point exactly. I think it's one of the better ones and you think it's cr@p. Neither of us is wrong because it's our own varying opinion.  As I'm sure you would agree  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Quoted from Garth


Childish petulance, we were 5-0 down


Yes, it may have been. But that's not exactly the point i'm making. I'm not saying I want people to start being aggressive when the game is dead. I'm saying we should show a bit more professionalism/gamesmanship in committing a foul that benefits the team every now and then. Just a shirt-pull on the half-way line to stop a counter attack, take a yellow for the team and break up the game. Things like that. We don't do it enough yet other teams do it to us and we moan about it after a 0-1 defeat like we've been cheated.

And before Cloudy jumps in, that is not what I encourage children to do at all. As said earlier, junior football and professional football are different worlds with different priorities.

Nearly... but Disley needs to be like Schrödinger's Midfielder, both there and not there at the same time, because dont forget whilst he cant be possibly out the team his legs have apparently also "gone"


Ah!
   But where exactly on the pitch is the 'quantum superposition' that Disley will be playing in??

Quoted from ginnywings
So from nowhere, the perceived wisdom is that Gunning is a liability after a couple of games? Christ, the overreaction on this site never ceases to amaze me. Since we got spanked on Saturday, i have seen just about every player on and off the pitch, plus the manager, vilified in one form or another. The system is wrong, the shape is wrong, the attitude is wrong, the manager has lost the dressing room etc etc. The answer to all this lies in any other formation and combination of players you could possibly imagine, even players that are not in the match day squad and some that are no longer even here. So..................

Macca in goal, we have no one else.

Mills right back because Davies is too old and "his legs have gone".

Pearson and Collins centre backs because as a three we are too slow and Gunning is a liability, or stick to a three and replace Gunning with Boyce, who is ace.

Andrew left back despite him having a poor first half and being substituted, yet no blame attached to him.

Midfield has to include Dizza because we can't possibly lose with him in the side.

Osborne a must because he hasn't upset anyone yet.

We need some width, so Tombola on the right who will run around a lot, very fast, but no end product. Or we could force Nuneaton to give us Chambers back because he can "do a job" there.

On the left we could play either of our injured lefties, Vose or Berrett. I'm sure each could play 45 mins with morphine shots before they go on.

Up front, doesn't matter as none of them look like scoring.

Subs- Any other players you think merit a game for no other reason than they have to be better than what we've tried so far.

Manager- Give Mickey Moore a go for a game and see what happens. If we win, he gets to keep the job and MB becomes assistant until he learns his lesson.

Sorted, 5-0 win to us.


Genius..love it!!

"low on attitude"??
Please expand.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.
